Hi all,

I am installing Arch with btrfs filesystem with compression.

Here is my mount poings

sda1 2MB for btrfs core.img for Grub
sda2 4GB swap
sda3 remaining space for btrfs system

It fails in following step.

mount -o remount,compress=lzo /dev/sda3 /mnt
/mnt not mounted or bad option

Thanks.

Is it mounted? Does "mount | grep sda3" show anything? If it isn't mounted, you can't remount it, so run the command without "remount".
